11th edition of nude gets underway

Nude, the New Design Show, is the interiors industry’s creative nerve centre at the Valencia trade fair. A space where young designers come into contact with the industry’s manufacturers and have a great opportunity to carve themselves a niche in the professional world.

Fernando Amat, director of Vinçon, Spain’s leading design retailer and winner of the 1995 National Design Prize; celebrated journalist Tachy Mora, who specialises in design and writes for media including El País and Neo2 magazine; Ester Castaño, executive director of Sancal; Juan Mellen, executive director of RED-AEDE, the Spanish Association of Design Companies and internationally acclaimed industrial designer Carlos Tiscar, who is currently chairman of the ADCV, the Association of Designers of the Comunitat Valenicana, will between them be deciding which design practices will be in the line-up at nude 2012.

All are leading professionals with extensive experience in various areas of design and they will be facing the difficult task of selecting the best of the designs submitted to feature in Feria Hábitat Valencia’s young creatives show.

The deadline for submitting designs is 23rd May, after which date the jury will meet and review all the submissions, which will come from young design studios, new designers, freelancers, galleries, design schools and manufacturers under five years old- all candidates to join the nude universe.
